  Virtual visit of Domaine de la Poulette    


It is in this cellar that, once grown and harvested, our grapes are careffully transformed into wine. The wine then stays there for 18 months while it is aged in barrels. Don't hesitate to come and view the cellar. Visits are arranged by appointment only (+33 3 80 62 98 02 - english sopken)  
1- The cellar's entrance and it's testing area

2- Oak Barrels of 228 litres (called "Pièces") in which the red wine is aged for 18 months. These barrels are renewed year after year in order to keep the same proportion of new barrels

3- These rotatives tanks are used for the alcoholic fermentation. They help extracting the maximum out of the grapes. The must regularly receives air through micro-oxygenation. These stainless rotative tanks have replaced old wooden barrels cuves where the cap was punched during the fermentation. Such tanks are visible at the Castle of Clos de Vougeot, and old abbey only a few miles away.

4- Oval shaped barrels brought over by Lucien Audidier, from a north-east french wine making region, Alsace. very rare in Burgundy.
